2091 She’s Here
Rong Xiu was originally sitting. With her movement, he immediately stretched out his hand and put it on the chair, while his other hand supported her waist.
The two people’s bodies were close to each other, with her on the top and him at the bottom, breathing each other’s breaths.
Rong Xiu had a wry smile. “Yue’er, are you sure you want to talk to me in this position?”
Chu Liuyue then realized that their positions weren’t right. Her face flushed red, and she immediately crawled away.
Rong Xiu pressed her waist down, looked up, and captured her lips. A low voice came from his lips in a vague manner. “…I’ll just accompany you there…”
Chu Liuyue thought about it in a daze and felt that it was not a bad idea.
Coincidentally, Tang Ke had been following Rong Xiu the whole time. If they went together, they might be able to help Tang Ke and Su Li recover. Of course, she also wanted to check on Big Baby and the others’ conditions.
Noticing her distraction, Rong Xiu bit her lips.
“Si—” Chu Liuyue instinctively shrunk back and whimpered with grievances. “It hurts…”
Rong Xiu chuckled softly and patiently comforted her. “I’ll be lighter…”
…
Red Moon Desert.
The overwhelming red color dissipated at some point.
The bright red sunlight baked the boundless desert. The terrifyingly high temperature seemed to burn the air as well.
There was no wind, and the heat waves burned.
Only a small oasis in the desert had ripples.
Below the lake was a cage without day or night.
A thick bloody aura spread around. There were dark-red blood stains everywhere, as if an abnormally tragic battle had just occurred.
Three figures sat opposite each other in a triangular formation—it was Dugu Mobao’s group of three.
At this point, a very complicated silver Xuan formation was slowly turning above the three people’s heads. It glowed faintly and covered the three of them in a formidable manner!
If Chu Liuyue were here, she would’ve definitely realized that this was similar to the Xuan formation summoned at Ling Xiao Academy’s Million Wine Mountain, but this one was much more complicated.
Below the Xuan formation, there was a palm-sized black shadow in the middle of the trio. That shadow seemed to have a strange pattern, but it was incomplete and could not be recognized.
Time slowly trickled past, and the dark shadow gradually dissipated.
When the last bit completely disappeared, the Xuan formation above their heads stopped moving at the same time. Then… it disappeared!
Shoo!
Dugu Mobao’s body shook as he spat out a mouthful of blood!
Diwu Zhangze’s and Lan Xiao’s condition weren’t any better—their auras became much weaker.
“Oh my god. How hard to handle!” Diwu Zhangze supported himself and couldn’t help but curse. “Luckily, Yue’er Girlie and Rong Xiu released my aura. If not…”
If not, I might not even be able to make it through this time.
He looked at Dugu Mobao and Lan Xiao. “How are you guys?”
Dugu Mobao raised his hand and wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, slowly opening his eyes as he did so. “I’m fine.”
Lan Xiao was still chained up. Upon hearing this, he forcefully moved, covered half his face with one hand, and laughed. “What a pity. I was quite satisfied with my face this time round, yet it was ruined just like that…”
Diwu Zhangze furrowed his brows tightly. “Why are you still thinking about this at this point!?”
Even though he said that, seeing that Lan Xiao still had the mood to talk about this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Lan Xiao tugged at the corner of his lips, and the face below his palm was pretty much damaged. “Tsk, don’t worry. I can’t die just yet. It’s not that easy to take my life!”
“It’d naturally be difficult to kill you at your peak. However, it’s not that hard to take your life now,” said Dugu Mobao nonchalantly while coldly looking over.
Lan Xiao pouted and tried his best to roll his eyes. “I knew you wouldn’t say anything nice!”
Dugu Mobao ignored him and continued, “Your soul can’t take it any longer. If you can’t quickly reform your Holy Body, your soul will dissipate sooner or later.”
After this was said, the surroundings fell silent.
They all knew that Dugu Mobao was speaking the truth.
After a moment, Lan Xiao lazily leaned back on the stone wall and muttered with a headache, “It’s easy to talk about reforming a Holy Body. Do you think everyone is as crazy as you…”
Besides, he had already failed once, and this added onto the problem.
He could forcefully make it through this Wei Yue because he relied on Dugu Mobao and Diwu Zhangze for help. How would it be that easy for him to reform his Holy Body?
Then, he tugged at his lips and nonchalantly laughed. “It’s fine if I can’t make it through. I’ve been stuck in this stupid place for so long. Even if you’re not frustrated, I am…”
Dugu Mobao said coldly, “If you wanted to die, there were so many chances during the past 10,000 years. Why didn’t I see you take them?”
Lan Xiao could not maintain his facial expression. “I’m just saying! Why do you take it for real?!”
Diwu Zhangze held his forehead helplessly. Wei Yue has just ended, and they are quarreling again. I really don’t know how I survived between the two of them all these years…
“Besides, even if I really want to die, I have to see Yue’er Girlie again before I die, right? I—”
Suddenly, Dugu Mobao’s expression changed slightly, and he stood up. “She’s here.”
He turned around and lightly glanced at Lan Xiao. “You can die without regrets now.”
Lan Xiao: “…Would you die if you said something nice!? Didn’t you see that I’m already in this state?! Even if she comes—wait, who did you say came?!”
Lan Xiao was about to scold Dugu Mobao heartily when he was suddenly taken aback.
However, Diwu Zhangze had already reacted. He was first elated before he nervously asked, “Yue’er Girlie is here? How did she come so quickly?”
Dugu Mobao knitted his brows slightly. “This time’s Wei Yue has lasted longer than in the past. Her coming now isn’t considered fast.”
After all, it had been quite some time since Rong Xiu sent Diwu Zhangze’s aura back.
But luckily, everything was over…
“T-that can’t do! In our current situation—”
Diwu Zhangze was fine. However, Dugu Mobao was injured, and Lan Xiao was in the most serious condition. If that girl saw them, she would definitely guess something.
Lan Xiao hurriedly said, “Exactly! My face hasn’t healed yet. I can’t see her—can’t see her!”
Dugu Mobao glanced at the two of them. “She can’t enter this place for now. Why are you worried?”
With his reminder, Diwu Zhangze and Lan Xiao then recovered their senses and heaved a long sigh of relief. “That’s good…”
“Rong Xiu is here too.” Dugu Mobao’s eyes had a few hints of annoyance.
Diwu Zhangze hesitantly said, “Probably because they were worried after I told them about Wei Yue previously, so they came together…”
Dugu Mobao said, “You guys can just wait here. I’ll go out to see them.”
…
At the same time, Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue reached the side of the lake.
Chu Liuyue surveyed her surroundings and knitted her brows slightly.
Rong Xiu asked, “Yue’er, what’s the matter?”
“For some reason… I feel that this place seems amiss and different from before…” Chu Liuyue shrugged her shoulders with a sharp nose as doubts flashed across her eyes. “Rong Xiu, do… you smell something bloody?”
Rong Xiu’s eyes flickered, and he shook his head. “No,”
He also looked at the surroundings. “This… seems the same as before. What do you think is amiss?”
Chu Liuyue didn’t say a word.
Yes, she knew that the desert seemed exactly the same as before. At first glance, it was still a desert with no end.
The lake before them was still the same.
It was also hard for such a simple and wide scenery to have any changes. However… she just felt that something was different.
This feeling was very strange. She herself did not know how to explain it.
“Perhaps it’s my illusion.” Chu Liuyue hesitated for a moment before replying with some uncertainty.
Rong Xiu squeezed her hand. His palm with some calluses completely covered her palm. “Perhaps it’s because of Wei Yue?”
Chu Liuyue was in deep thought. “Maybe…”
She shook her head and suppressed her messy thoughts. “I wonder how Big Baby and the rest are doing now…”
Before she could finish her sentence, the surface of the water rippled.
The lake slowly separated from the middle, and a tiny figure walked out. It was an adorable-looking boy, who looked three or four with purple hair and eyes.
Only the shocking suppression that he faintly exuded caused one to be unable to underestimate him!
Chu Liuyue was elated. “Big Baby!”
Dugu Mobao looked at her, and a faint smile finally surfaced on his icy face.
But when he saw Rong Xiu standing at the side, this smile quickly disappeared.
Rong Xiu nodded slightly. “Senior Dugu.”
Chu Liuyue was long used to Dugu Mobao’s icy look and did not care about it as she hurriedly went forward and asked, “Big Baby, is everything alright here? Also, how are Senior Diwu and Senior Lan Xiao?”
